Help My Mom Pay for Heart Surgery
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Elliott Anthony. My mom Shannen Anthony has struggled with heart issues her whole life, and we found out last year she has not only an issue with her aortic valve, but her aorta is 5mm when it should be 1.6mm. This means that she needs open heart surgery on top of valve replacement surgery, which is extremely expensive; it can be well over 100 thousand dollars. She’s had to take on many restrictions such as, not lifting over 10 pounds, not exercising much, etc. The longer it’s pushed off the bigger her aorta becomes and the more her life is at risk.
Christmas is coming up and I would really like to surprise her by paying off some of the surgery cost or at least the costs for the CT scans and echos. She is a single mom and has done an amazing job of raising both me and my little brother.
Any amount matters, thank you so much!
